 TOLEDO, July 2S.-The Republican State convention was called to order at 10 o'clock by Temporary Chairman Ryan. The dele gates were in good humor, being jubilani over the extinction of the opposition to the endorsement resolution. The committee on credentials and rules made reports which were adopted, and ex-Governor Charles Eos
 ter, chairman of the committee on resolu-
 tions, read the platform, which was as fol lows:
 The Republican party, in convention assembled, submits to the people of Ohio the following declara ton of its principles:
 CD We are in favor of protective tariff to se- cure to American citizens the privilege of supply ing every article which be produced well Tn the United States as in other countries, and sufi makes demand for and gives s'n enp1oyment to the labor of American citizens and thereby aids in SC the Ohio Democratlc platform of tariff for reve- only, and which demands indiScrlminate reduction all duties on imported articles, the effect of which would be to encourage importa- tions, thus giving American patronage to foreign producers and foreign labor, rather than to our own.

We earnestly protest against the decisions of the Secretary of Treasury in customs cases in the interest of the foreign producer and foreign labor as in opposition to the letter and spirit of the tariff laws.

 When the last resolution, the Sherman en- dorsement, was reached the cheering broke out and at a call from a delegate three cheers were given for Sherman before the reading could continue. The tariff plank was re- ceived with loud cheers and all received more or less applause. When the endorse ment of Governor Foraker's administration was reached the convention cheered as one man, many rising to their feet and swinging their hats. The rebel flag clause revived the demonstration. A motion was made to adopt the whole platform by exclamation. It was done unanimously without dissent ing vote. Tremendous cheering followed and loud calls were made for Sherman. He
